Holiday at Burgenland

The southern Burgenland, nestled in gentle hills, is a true region of pleasure. The historic cellar alleys still bear witness to original winegrowing and invite visitors to taste the fine wines on site. In addition to winemakers, distilleries also give visitors an insight into the art of distilling, while the many typical Buschenschanken serve regional delicacies. Historic old towns, castles and thermal spas make southern Burgenland a popular vacation spot year-round. The flat region - whose endless expanses can be wonderfully explored from above in a hot-air balloon, by the way - is especially appreciated by golfing enthusiasts.
